Sorry, but you should re-read that comment if you want to accuse it.

This says that there is a melancholic symphony, which is about - and reminds of - the descend of vibrant life into a silent void. Which is an apt description of the death of a beautiful ecosystem like the corals.

Fair, but even in that statement its just weird to mix imagery involving music and silence unless they are being juxtaposed.
And, it opens with:
> In the ethereal melody of a once thriving reef
So which is it, something akin to music, albeit weird/poignant/sad/ethereal music, or is it a void?

Doesn't read that way to me. Vibrant life has become a silent void, and the pain of seeking that past is a melancholic symphony
It just isn't quite right: For one, redescribing a symphony as a 'silent void'
